San Francisco is a tough place to make an honest living in 1890. Cayley Wallace's dreams are modest: a warm coat, a husband who doesn't beat her, a few pennies to ease her family's poverty. But dreams are hard to come by south of the slot (Market Street). Landing a job as a day servant is an improvement - until her employer begins to prey on her, leaving her terrified and powerless.Wo Sam only wants to earn enough to pay off his passage and return home to China, if he can keep from sinking into despair and away from the roving white gangs and tong soldiers that turn the streets of Little China into a bloody battleground. One becomes a rich and powerful brothel owner, the other a fugitive - until they join forces to rule over the city's underworld amid the exciting, swirling kaleidoscope of races, places, classes and money that is boomtown San Francisco. SHAKETOWN is based on real characters from San Francisco's history, in an era when poverty and extreme wealth exist together down the same dark alleys - and disaster is only an earthquake away.
